e.
f.
o
Data Availability
Determination of Weapon Effectiveness
Level of Detail
Ability to Isolate the Action
Ability to Justify Estimates

APPENDIX F
TANK DESTROYER BATTALION RECORD SEARCH
TANK DESTROYER BATTALION RECORD SEARCH
The Tank Destroyer Battalion (TDBN) Records are one of the better sources
for the detailed anti-tank data required for this project. Because of this, SAIC
reviewed all the TDBN that were in the European Theater of Operation during World
War II. This review identified those units for which good, detailed data was
kept.
In selecting future engagements for detailed data collection, more
priority should be given to those engagements for which the best TDBN data can
be found. This will optimize the chances of developing multiple anti-tank combat
actions.
The following is a brief summary of the findings of the TDBN records.

No real encounters recorded.
TDBN-601-0.3 Unit Journals, 22 January - 31 December 1944.
Rhineland; relieved 636th TDBN; Strassbourg operations; "Summary of
Damage Inflicted on Enemy" reported 14 tanks destroyed, but with
little details; reports German trick of substituting at night an
operational tank for a knocked-out one -- Us responded by shelling
all such objects repeatedly.
NOTE: The "Summary of Damage Inflicted on Enemy" (SDIE) will appear
in many of the S-3 Periodic Summary Reports -- especially when there
is anti-tank action. These appear to be used in place of the regular
artillery summary reports which address types of fire and munitions
consumptions. The appearance of SDIEs in the TDBN folders is a sign
of possible records of engagements against tanks and an aid to dates
which can be examined in the more detailed daily Journal of Events
(sometimes called Incidents, Messages, and Reports), or narrative
monthly reports. The S-3 Summary Reports usually follow the lengthy
Journals -- daily entries on legal-size paper. The Journals are
often hand-written and hard to read. Recommend examining the summary
reports first, before going to the detail in the journals.

detail with some limited potential for the study.

NOTE: this is the first appearance of this form noticed so far.
Evidently the Divisions or Corps determined the need, format, and
use of such formatted reports on the TDBNs activities. These forms
are by far the best noted by this researcher. Frequently the reports
are accompanied by map overlays -- some of the overlays were
reproduced on the old mimeographs and are too faded to xerox well.

Bn CP at
Teterchen, Co A has 2 guns at St. Barbara and 2 guns at
Guisingen
"A tank holding up the Inf in the town of St.
Barbara (8223) was finally destroyed by this plat. The tank
was so situated in the town that direct fire could not be
brought upon it without undo exposure to its fire. A bazooka
team, headed by Sgt Holcomb was sent out to try and destroy
the tank. The team hit the tank with a round of bazooka, but
failed to disable it.
The tank withdrew, but later returned
to its former position. Further attempts to get to the tank
with the bazooka failed. Lt. Knapp then fired several rounds
of 90 MM through the buildings and causing a dust-smoke screen
in the vic of the tank. Under the protection of this screen
Lt. Knapp placed his destroyer in a position and fired through
the smoke-dust screen at the location of the tank.
Later
reports from the Inf and a tank officer confirmed the
destruction of the en tank. The destroyed tank was a Mark
IV."

701, and 805 at Anzio Beachhead.
Starting 31 Mar there are formatted, printed "Status of Tank
Destroyer Units Assigned to VI Corps" reports; while they do not
reflect AT action on the part of the 805th, they do make reference
to other TDBNs in the area: attached to 34th ID are C co of 701st
TDBN, the 601st TDBN, and C co/805th TDBN; attached to Corps
Reserve: 894th TDBN(-); to SSF: 805th TDBN(-); to 1st AD: 701st
TDBN(-); to Ist Br ID: A co 894th TDBN; to 5th Br ID: B co 894th
TDBN; to 45th ID: 645th TDBN.
NOTE: 805th TDBN had M-10 towed 3" guns, this may explain why they
were uses mainly as filed artillery.
TDBN 894 made tank kills on 8-9 and 20-21 Apr 44; TDBN on 14-15, 2021, and 21-22 Apr 44.
29 Apr 44 reports totals of Tank kills as: 40 for 601st, 14 for

11 Mar 45: C company destroys 3 MK V's at 50 yds. Unfortunately,
reported ammunition expended includes that used for other targets
for the day; however, the detailed narratives may have some cases
where this will be covered; some potential in these reports for the

The TDBN unit records do not produce too much detail on AT encounters in N.

In Italy, it appears that there may be material for Anzio. Material
for France and Germany is also there.
